Accessing Oracle System Assistant

The Oracle System Assistant (OSA) application is a task-based server provisioning tool that
allows you to perform initial server setup and maintenance for Oracle x86 servers.
Using Oracle System Assistant, you can install a supported Oracle VM, Linux, or
Windows operating system, update your blade to the latest software release, and configure blade
hardware.

Note - Under high-ambient temperatures, the USB port that is used for the OSA drive
might become unreliable. There is no user space on the OSA drive, and
it is intended only for the functions described by OSA. The rear USB
ports require industrial-temperature-rated devices to meet NEBS maximum input ambient conditions. Currently, Oracle does
not offer industrial-temperature-rated USB ports.

The following procedures describe different ways to access Oracle System Assistant:
